[154213] Intersections of Gender and Genre: The British Novel in the Long 18th Century — Proseminar
Christian Lenz, Katrin Röder

Score: 8.13 Intersections of Gender and Genre: The British Novel in the Long 18th Century Leading scholars exploring the development of the novel in the long eighteenth century refer to the period as being marked not only by the cultural formation of a binary model of gender identity but also by a ‘gender revolution’ and the ‘feminization’ of the genre of the novel (K. Binhammer), grounding their assertions on the rise of the female first-person narrator and the growing number of female authors and readers. We will examine literary constructions of femininity, masculinity and discussions of sexual desire in the emerging genres of the sentimental novel, the ‘queer gothic’ and the ‘sapphic picaresque’ (K. Binhammer) and ask in which ways they participate in, respond to and challenge the rise of the binary model of gender identity. Texts We will discuss the following novels

M. A. Sibylle Klemm

Score: 7.44 In this course, we will explore selected fiction and non-fiction works of Pulitzer- and Nobel-Prize winning author Toni Morrison.

Although Morrison is best known for her novels her essays are worthwhile readings since they provide interesting perspectives on American literature and culture. In addition to these works, we will learn more about Morrison from her interviews and some secondary literature. Please get a copy of the following books: The Bluest Eye, Song

[154252] Emplotting (Un)Happiness in British Novels and Films — Hauptseminar
Christian Lenz, Katrin Röder

Score: 6.74 Emplotting (Un)Happiness in British Novels and Films This seminar explores one of the most important subjects of the British novel in the 18th century and beyond, the question of individual, familial, communal and societal (un)happiness. It addresses the significance of different philosophical, political and economic conceptions of (un)happiness, the ways in which they act as hermeneutic frames and genre-shaping forces and asks how these conceptions of (un)happiness are represented, problematized, negotiated and critiqued in novels from the 18th, 19th and 20th centuries and in two films from the early 21st century. We will analyze happiness as a narrative structure that is characterized by specific forms of emplotment, temporalities and affective conversions. Furthermore, seminar discussions will examine in how far the selected works represent happiness and unhappiness as opposites or (as suggested by Sara Ahmed in her book The Promise of Happiness) as inextricably connected concepts and modes of being. Texts The seminar focuses on the following novels and films: Daniel Defoe: The Life and Adventures of Robinson Crusoe (1719) Charlotte Brontë: Jane Eyre (1847) Hanif Kureishi: The Buddha of Suburbia (1990) Bend It Like Beckham (dir

Zhe Wang, Ahmed Ghalgaoui

Score: 6.68 Time domain terahertz spectroscopy consists of lectures in conjunction with laboratory courses giving the students the opportunity to directly apply the material from the lectures in the laboratory. In this context, fundamental physical properties of matter, such as the refractractive index, conductivity, or resistivity, are studied using terahertz spectroscopy. The lectures will begin with basic concepts a of light matter interaction, in particular, how such concepts are used to determine refractive indices of varying susbtances, like semiconductors, magnetic samples, or liquid water. In addition, the use of pump-probe spectrocopy to investigate conductivity and some other nonlinear processes in matter will be discussed. The lecture will take place every tuesday from 2 - 4 pm

[154674] Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow — Hauptseminar
Sascha Pöhlmann

Score: 6.38 Thomas Pynchon’s 1973 Gravity’s Rainbow is quite simply the best and most important American novel ever. It is a notoriously complex text with a reputation that most readers may find daunting, and at the same time it is utterly rewarding and still groundbreaking after 50 years. It tells the story of Lieutenant Tyrone Slothrop and his hunt for the V2 rocket in the destroyed Zone of Germany just as the Second World War ends, but it also tells the story of transnational conspiracies, colonial histories, technological innovations and personal grudges and obsessions that span centuries, and it is a genuinely global novel. With hundreds of characters (including an octopus and an immortal lightbulb) and dozens of plots that may or may not go anywhere, it is the most thrilling, infuriating, entertaining , challenging read out there. We’ll make sense of it together, reading-group style. Please get a copy of the novel and read the first section as soon as you’re accepted for the class. This seminar ties in with the one-day symposium “Elfriede Jelinek übersetzt Thomas Pynchon,” which will take place in the afternoon of October 24, 2024 at Literaturhaus Dortmund. Attending the symposium is mandatory for all
